Just moved to Huntington Beach, live by downtown. All this ocean has my bendo radar going beserk... been living inland for 5 years. Love seeing the ocean every day. I went surf fishing by the dog beach, I was told to use a Carolina Rig (1/2 lb) with Gulp Worms. I dunno man, I gotta be doing this wrong. using my 6 foot trout pole 6lb test, feel like I cast out by the second wave break, is that far enough? Feel like I should be hitting deeper water, but I've seen some youtube and researched some forums that, you kinda fish the surf like freshwater bass? Just keep casting and reeling? I got nothing man... appreciate any help.

Any suggestions of where to go? Wanna meet up? I'll buy you lunch!
